Is it possible to mark static members in suggestion boxes with a special symbol (C/C++)?
In the image below, the "Get" function is static, but all the other functions are not, which you could not know or guess from just looking at the list as it is. It would be nice to have a special symbol displayed next to the name of the suggestion to indicate a static member.
Maybe I just missed a setting in VA?
Thank you. |

Oops, I forgot the case number:
case=85612
Stacking icons make sense if you only ever have one or two icons, but people have also asked about const and virtual, just to name two off the top of my head, and the readability of overlapping icons break down fairly quickly. |

Yes, I was trying to filter out the static members of a class instance.
I thought maybe one could render multiple smaller icons on top of a base-icon, creating a compound icon which displays multiple properties of a listbox entry at once. Maybe that's not possible or too expensive, but that's ok, it was just an idea I had and I thought maybe something like this already exists.
Thanks for putting in that feature request, it seems like that will be sufficient for my needs and it sounds like it won't be too hard to implement in the current state of VA. |

Unfortunately no, there is no setting for this. What are you trying to achieve here? Are you trying to avoid calling the static members from a class instance?
I have put in a feature request to add static to the toolbar that appears when you hover the mouse over a listbox, allowing you to filter the listbox. Adding icons does not scale well, since a function can have more than one attribute you want to know about at a time. |
